Good storage product, but expensive!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is an expensive hard drive storage, but believe that it is the best one used for MacBooks. I recommend this as a good option, but disappointed with the high price.

It crashed and I can't restart it.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was initially pleased with my purchase. The set up was easy and streamlined. However, just after I'd saved all of my files to the hard drive and deleted the copies of the documents from my computer. The drive crashed, and I can't get it to do more than sound like it will restart. I'm lucky I hadn't deleted my pictures from the computer.

Maybe third time is the charm
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my second external hard drive through this company. The first got water damage in a flood and for obvious reasons stopped working. This was a replacement one. After having lost everything from the first one I was desperate to not lose anything else. The chord broke after normal usage and caused damage to the hard drive and now there is no way to get anything off it.

Piece of Junk
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this Seagate Back Plus Slim and had it shipped to me. Worked for a few hours and died. Had put files on drive so had to return to a local Best Buy store. They told me on the phone they could wipe disk but at store said drive was defective so could not wipe disk. Best Buy sent me a replacement which also died after a few hours of use. Now have no working product and I'm out the money I spent. If you search on Google for Seagate Backup Plus Slim for Mac you will see many unhappy customers. My experience is this product is a piece of junk. I would not recommend it to anyone.

Awesome backup drive
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use this external hard drive to backup all my data from my iMac. It was easy to setup and does exactly what is says it will do. The product came right out of the box and worked without a problem. Easy set up and easy to use, small, light. Tons of space. Great price.

Crashed
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Did all my Time Machine backups on my Mac with this hard drive. Never had an issue until I bought a new MacBook, tried to transfer the files and the hard drive no longer worked. It was making a funny sound and wouldn’t open. Too bad I had already traded in my old Mac at this point.
